Just a dynamite Vosne 1er which in this vintage is even more concentrated than normal and still loaded with an array of black cherry, Asian spice and black tea. Still in an early drinking window with loads of fruit and now nicely integrated but still youthful structure.

Vinøs hyttetur; 9/30/2022-10/1/2022: Krydret og dyp, en god munnfull, mørkt uttrykk, strålende balanse og kompleksitet - nesten mot påfuglhale, nedslipt struktur nå. 94-95p. Meget stilig vin, men nye årganger nærmer seg jo DRC i pris.

Complex, deep and spicy nose, mostly black fruits; Most concentrated, long, complex finish with characteristic spicy finish. Force over elegance. In the beginning of its drinking window.

Great Sushi, Great Wines (San Mateo, California): Opened and poured. Still even medium ruby. Rapidly soaring nose of clove, perfumed fruit, and a small amount of herb. Medium weight with glorious glycerine, sappy feel. The wood that I noted in 2012 has been beautifully integrated. Seamless, discretely ripe fruit with round supporting tannins. Super persistence and finish. This is a superlative Premier Cru with the stuffing to last another decade, over which it should become less dense and even more ethereal. Its quality was evident insofar as it acquitted itself beautifully next to a Rousseau Chambertin although it could not match the refinement of that wine.

(Arnoux Robert Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots) A deep ruby-red core right to the rim. The nose is a bit of a give-away; once the prominent dark oak fades - 5 minutes - you are left with a wide and spicy vista over deeper sweet and dark oak. It takes rather a long time - over 1 hour - before striking yet still spice-edged cherry fruit is revealed. After the last wine this is sleeker and certainly more polished yet is equally concentrated. The acidity is just a little brighter but the velvet tannins and the finish are certainly more oak driven and just show a little bitterness because of that - it’s long though. Complex and compelling, though this wine is the only one of these five to show a strong winemaker’s signature with its modern oak-driven style.

Holiday Champagne Gala (Wilmette Harbor Club): Tasted at gala dinner. Rich with a classically Vosne fruit and spice profile. Very tasty now.
